Once Upon A Time Articles

Excerpt:
This is another article inspired by a comment in the polls. I'm gonna start off with a little disclaimer; this article obviously isn't going to be CS friendly. If you know that you won't like what you're going to read please don't do that to yourself. However, in writing it I am to be as tactful and respectful as possible because I do want CSers to be able to read this. If you ship CS feel free to read and post your own counter arguments. I am open to a respectful debate.

My biggest bone to pick with CS is that I do very much believe that it ruined or at least damaged both Hook...

Awhile ago I went to a Once con and I wanted to briefly share my experience. I was blessed to spend a whole weekend at the con. More over it was the first convention I've ever attended, so it was a new experience.

When I first got there it was a bit confusing because the place it was held at was so big. But I found that pretty much all of the staff were really helpful and friendly. The first thing that happened was a welcome session with Michael and (I think) Gil. was an absolute joy he had so much dark humor I was dying lol. Some time later was the autograph session with those...

I think with the latest episode, Page 23, we've finally completed an important arc. Over the summer I made an article about my speculations as to weather or not Regina hates herself as well as her ability to forgive herself (link). Now I finally get to type one to sort of wrap it up.

Since that last article it has been confirmed that Regina really did hate herself with a degree of intensity. That moment when the...

I think that Tougher Than the Rest was a pretty solid and enjoyable episode. And with Robin coming back on the screen there have been a mix of opinions around the net. Personally I'm very excited for it.

I'm gonna get the negative out of the way first. The one thing I didn't like about this episode was that it seemed so rushed. For one I'm surprised that they left the wish realm so quickly, in one episode. I've noticed that lately Once has been action, action, action, and not enough plot. I do think that the wish verse should have been expanded on and used more. I mean there was...

The Reality of Heroes

After several seasons of Once Upon a Time I have come to the conclusion that being a hero isn't about being popular; it is instead about something more. I believe that it's about recognizing your responsibility, being accountable for your actions and, when you make a mistake, its about making the sacrifices necessary to set things right.

Inspired by the who has a harder life poll, I decided to make another article on this (I'll also be utilizing some comments from there). It kind of goes hand in hand with an older article I wrote; link so I'll kind of be bring up why I think she's still sympathetic as I believe these topics go hand in hand.

One more side note; despite the source of inspiration this article is going to be Regina focused and I...

Excerpt:
A lot of people seem to be really ripping into Regina because of last week's episode. I do admit there were some aspects that I have to agree with these people on but there are also quite a few places where I think people are being too hard on her. So I'm going to be playing a bit of Devil's advocate.
With that said; a good lot of the points and topics I'm going to discuss are things I've seen on tumblr.

Excerpt:
Mirrors have always been closely associated with Regina, even before her debut as a character in Once through her Disney counterpart. But just because she's now apart from that part of herself doesn't mean that the mirrors are any less symbolic. That said I won't be talking much of her relationship with the magic mirror (aka Sidney) as my goal here is to address the symbolism of the mirrors.

Once Upon A Time Wall

I miss the days when this club was a lot more active and so many people would participate in polls, countdowns, zanhar1's polls she'd post during the newest episode, the icon contests, and all that. It was so active during the first four seasons and the first half of season 5 (Damn that Hook driving so many people away). It's a shame because season 6 captured a lot of the spirit of season 1. I wish this club was still as active as it used to be. This club is pretty much DEAD!
